Different Strokes

“My family posed for this shot when I was 4 or 5. I’m front and center. I laughed so hard when I rediscovered this photo. I love how we are all looking different directions.”

Doctor Doctor

“I was thirteen when my brother was born & apparently the responsibility expectation stakes were suddenly raised to a whole new level. Are we to assume that I was assisting with labor & delivery? WTH?”

Cult Of Personality

“When I was about 5 (I’m 40 now) my parents thought it would be fun to take some weird pictures on a camping trip to send to their friends and family.  Apparently, we frightened the park ranger. The end result is a pretty fantastic family portrait.  I can’t decide if we look more like the missing three from Fleetwood Mac or the leaders of a cult.”
